Yeah, I'm nitpicky about that one too!

...knowing full-well that bandstand-learning and life-learning are hugely important to one's growth. Oh, never mind...

Mats Gustafsson & Cie - The Music of Norman Howard - (Anagram) Really hoping ESP reissues those archival Norman Howard recordings soon... But for now, this will do - dense fire in the tradition of the best Scandinavian-American collaborations!

Sorry - that was somewhat off-the-cuff. I was referring to academic, or at least directed cultural study. Not bandstand-learning, necessarily.

Tony Oxley - Ichnos - (RCA-Victor orig) Haven't spun this madness in awhile...

Cecil Taylor - Unit Structures - (BN NY mono, ear and RVG)

Yeah, but some of us (myself included) could use a LOT more education...

Didn't realize they'd done the solo stuff...

I can relate. I write stuff for the site, but the bulletin board is not my cup o' whiskey.

Welcome to the days of the under-funded and under-appreciated.

I enjoyed the pictures.

D'oh!

"For a great blowjob visit..............." ...............Lydia Lunch Is this based on first hand knowledge? A reference to the film "Submit to Me," written by Lydia Lunch and directed by Richard Kern. It's pretty heavy art-mindfuck shit.

They do online ordering, or do I just send you a check?

Again, I would say that that cuts across racial lines, but I could be wrong. I am not a student of sociological research, or at least haven't done any w/r/t this music.

In all seriousness, though, the fact that racial divides exist within every subgroup is a given. Yeah, I'd rather it not be so, and to a degree some of these divides have been bridged. Music happens both in spite of and because of this divide. So jazz/creative music/improvisation is not wholly embraced by African-Americans, and I suspect it's for the same reason it's not wholly embraced by most of society. In other words, it is uncommercial. Again, a given, and we go from there...

Both, to answer the initial question. A beautiful woman is a beautiful woman - objectively and subjectively speaking.

Thanks.

Can't go there with you... If you were to say "basically, the Jazz Messengers suck, except for a few of the early ones with Wayne Shorter, and maybe Buttercorn Lady," I might be able to follow you.

A classic!

Is this OOP?

What was your name over there? cherryco... Don't recall posting all that much over there, though. For some reason, organissimo inspires me more (or my time is less valuable)...

I like the Harry Miller, but haven't spun it a ton since getting it. Tippett is on fire on that one, regardless. Yeah, EP1 nailed it w/r/t Collier, as he often does!

Who carries Bleu Regard in the States? Cadence?
